The alarming disease Of this
country is nervous debility and
prostration. 1t goes urder
many names but it is essen.
italy the same complaint.
Hospitals and private institu-
tons for nervous patients are
crowded. The average of life
IN the United States is de-
creasing every year Sudden
death from nervous collapse
among our business, profess
ional and public men are so
frequent as to scarcely excite
remark. The majority Of sui
cides, committed without APP
parent reason, or under social.
ed "depression of spirits" are
really prompted by nervous
prostratlon, which is a fruitful
source of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling;
they threaten the very life of
the nation; they assail the
springs of its power and pros
perity; they wreck mqnhoods
strength and woman's useful
ness and beauty.
Everyone should know the
causes. What are they? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain Cur vicious personal
habits; our careless and lawless
eating and drinking; the in
tense mental and physical
strain arising from our mad
race after money, position and
influence; the fears and strug-
giles of poverty; the use of mar
cotics and stimulants; ourfash-
ion of turning day into night
and night into day; and, brief
ly, our desperate willingness to
pay any price tor an hours
pleasure or success. SO we
burn life's candle at both ends
and fill the lunatic asylums
and the grayeyards.
The disease from which we
suffer and die is, in plain Eng
lish, nervous dyspepsia, as it
is seated IN the nerves and in
the organs Of digestion assinl-
ilation and nutrition. Healthy
digestion being impeded or de-
stroyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starved;
even when there is no enact
alton to tell the sad story.
Nervous prostration sends
out its warnings headache
in the morning; a persistent
dull heavlness or aching at the
base of the brain; wakefulress;
loss of appetite and disgust
with food; loss of mental ener-
gy and interest in ordinary
duties and business: restless
ness and anxiety without any
assign able reason; eructations
bad breath; foul mucous ON the
teeth; occasional giddiness;
paIpitation of the heart; sal.
lowness Of the skin coated
tongue and gradual failure OF
strength and ambition.
The remedy is a total aban-
donment Of the habits and Gus

Theater tonight. when Robson & Crane, with
their excellent company, appeared in the Merry
Wives of Windsor" and gave the most perfect
and enjoyable Shakspearian representation that
has been seen in Boston elsewhere for many
n day. The comedy was mounted with special
new scenery, beautiful and elaborate to degree
that won admiration, and that was as freely and
favorably commented upon as was the
strength and symmetry of the cast. A
very large audience was present, and the origin
or the work naturally attracted to the perform
